Jesse Yates updated HBASE-9221:
-------------------------------
Attachment: hbase-9221-trunk-v0.patch
Attaching initial attempt for trunk.
Its a bit bigger than the 94 patch since I had to pull User and UserProvider up
into common. Also, I had to propagate the change to what seems like a lot more
classes (going to check to make sure I didn't miss anything with the 0.94
patch).
> Provide interface for getting a User in the client

>
> Sometimes, users will want to provide their own User class depending on the
> type of security they will support in their local environment. For instance,
> running Hadoop1 vs Hadoop2 vs CDH means potentially different ways of getting
> the UserGroupInformation.
> This issue abstracts out the mechanism by which we obtain an
> o.a.h.hbase.security.User to a UserProvider. This UserProvider can then be
> extented as a Hadoop 1/2 shim as well as supporting custom authentication
> code.
